3.9.8, compared to 3.9.7 introduces a regression, making at least one third party extension fail at runtime. The symbol changes in 3.9.8 are:

- _PyUnicode_DecodeUnicodeEscape@Base
+ _PyUnicode_DecodeRawUnicodeEscapeStateful@Base
+ _PyUnicode_DecodeUnicodeEscapeInternal@Base
+ _PyUnicode_DecodeUnicodeEscapeStateful@Base

Affected at least is the typed-ast extension.  Yes, you can rebuild the extension with 3.9.8, but then it doesn't work with earlier 3.9 versions.  Just dropping the symbol on a stable branch is suboptimal.
